Preventive Dentistry
Dr. Smith recommends that certain dental procedures be performed regularly as part of your proper dental hygiene. Preventative dentistry prevents illness before it occurs, corrects routine problems before they get worse, and identifies serious oral issues so they can be properly treated, such as:
- Cleaning helps fight plaque and gum disease
- Dental exams allow Dr. Smith to address dental problems in their early stages
- Polishing smooths and reduces stains
- Scaling is a deep-cleaning procedure which removes hardened plaque from your teeth and gums
- X-rays show the interior of dental structures which can help spot troubled areas that may otherwise go undetected
